cumulative Flashcards
changes in – produces dimensional change of dental materials
temp
excessive contraction –>
microleakage and secondary caries
excessive expansion –>
pressure on pulp, post-operative sensitivity, restoration protrudes
force per unit area
stress
unit of stress
N/m^2 (Pa)
when stress exceeds the – of an object, object breaks
cohesive strength
stress =
force/ cross-sectional area
Force (N) = 111, Stress (MPa) = 172.4
(mm^2) = 0.645 Area
elastic limit or yield strength/point: the max stress a material can withstand without –
permanent deformation
tipping point between elastic and plastic strain
elastic limit or yield strength/point
current flow by a – between two dissimilar metals in contact in a solution
voltage difference
Galvanic corrosion, Al –
dissolves (corrodes)
Al forms –
anode
Copper is less likely to –
corrode
copper forms –
cathode
